Pentax HD DA 40mm F2.8 Limited

The slim Pentax HD DA 40mm F2.8 Limited is one of the smallest lenses you'll find, and it doesn't skimp on image quality to get there.

Pentax smc P-DA 18-55mm F3.5-5.6 Zoom Lens

The lens comes with the kit I bought. Over all it is an ideal lens for beginners for everyday use. The focal length covers a wide to moderate wide-angle range. The lens is treated with smc coating for maximum light transmission. It has relatively sharp...

Pentax 18-55mm zoom
